Custom Authentication and ASP.NET MVC

Question

I have an internal web app being built in ASP.NET 4. We are stuck with using an authentication API built by another team. If a user to the site is authenticated

Answer 1

You can try with something like this:

FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(username, rememberMe);

to set the cookie for authenticated user, then just use the [Authorize] attribute on the Controller or Action that need authentication.

Try googling on the subject for further info, you will find a lot of stuff on authentication and authorization in MVC.
